  1. general relativity theory

    General Relativity Theory is a fundamental theory in physics proposed by Albert Einstein in 1915 that describes gravity as a geometric property of space and time, or spacetime, which is curved by the presence of mass and energy. It predicts phenomena such as time dilation, gravitational waves, black holes, and the bending of light passing near massive objects. General relativity also provides a theoretical framework for understanding cosmology, including the expanding universe and the Big Bang theory. In this theory, gravity is not seen as a force but as a result of the curvature of spacetime caused by mass and energy.
